Flamingnet Student Book Reviewer ASla_Hopkins
Cassie's life seems to be falling apart and it all starts
with her brother, Sef, going to Iraq to fight in the war.
After he leaves her mom is like a zombie, her sister is
always with her no good boyfriend, her best friend stops
talking to her, and her little brother who has Down's
Syndrome stops talking for no good reason. She constantly
feels like she cant breathe and just wants her brother to
come back home. It isn't until she finds Blue Sky's blog
that she starts to feel better. They email each other back
and forth and Cassie is more informed about what really is
going on overseas. Slowly her family starts growing together
but she knows it will never be the same as it was before.

Dear Blue Sky was a great book that really taught me a
lot about the Iraq war. I thought that everything Blue Sky
said was very interesting and I loved that Cassie could pour
her heart out to this girl she didn't even really know.
Reading the book, I almost felt like I was a part of
Cassie's life and family. It was a very easy book to read
and it flowed really well.
